Uncertainties in façade fire tests - Measurements and modeling
In this paper a comparison between test and modelling results are performed for two large-scale façade fire testing methods, namely SP Fire 105 and BS 8414-1. In order to be able to compare tests and modelling the uncertainties have to be quantified both in the test and the modelling. Here we present a methodology based on deterministic sampling to quantify uncertainties in the modelling input. We find, in general good agreement between the models and the test results. Moreover, temperatures estimated by plate thermometers is indicated to be less sensitive to small variations in model input and is thus suitable for these kind of comparisons. ; References: SP FIRE 105, Method for Fire Testing of Façade Materials, , Dnr 171-79-360 Department of Fire Technology, Swedish National Testing and Research Institute; (2002) Fire Performance of External Cladding Systems - Part 1: Test Method for Non-loadbearing External Cladding Systems Applied to the Face of the Building; White, N., Delichatsios, M., (2014) Fire Hazards of Exterior Wall Assemblies Containing Combustable Components, , National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Fire Protection Research Foundation Report; Yokoi, S., (1960) Study on the Prevention of Fire-spread Caused by Hot Upward Current, , Japanese Ministry of Construction, Building Research Institute Report; Ödeen, K., Nordström, A., (1967) Fire and Smoke Spread Along Facades and in Ventilation Ducts (in Swedish), , Arbetshandling 12:1967 från Byggforskningen, Statens Provningsanstalt (SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden); Ondrus, J., Pettersson, O., (1986) Fire Hazards of Façades with Externally Applied Additional Thermal Insulation, , LUTVDG/(TVBB-3025); Anderson, J., Boström, L., Jansson, R., Milovanović, B., Fire dynamics in façade fire tests: Measurement, modelling and repeatability (2015) Applications in Structural Fire Engineering, , 15-16 October; Anderson, J., Jansson, R., Façade fire tests - Measurements and modeling (2013) MATEC Web of Conferences, 9, p. 02003; Anderson, J., Jansson, ...
